Pakistani media reported that Islamabad has asked the Taliban government to officially recognize the Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan as a terrorist organization. This crucial demand was made during negotiations between the two sides in China, aimed at reducing border tensions.
The ongoing discussions primarily focus on a roadmap proposed by Pakistan to secure cross-border trade and establish a ceasefire. Officials from the Taliban government have remained silent on the matter, though they previously avoided labeling the group as terrorists.
Diplomatic contacts were halted after Pakistan launched military operations in February against armed groups. Following these events, security tensions along the Afghanistan and Pakistan border have significantly escalated, leading to renewed armed clashes between the two sides.
